Discover your private sanctuary, 5515 Cedar Cove Way, in the renowned Coves Mountain River Club. This 3 BR 2.5 BA home is on 2.67 acres at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. With a forest backdrop, the verdant landscaping of trees, ground covers, and river stone roots the home naturally into its woodland surroundings. Rarely do walk-out basements come with mountain views—this home enjoys stunning, mountain vistas from both levels and the porches and decks are an indoor/outdoor retreat. Through the trees is a trail to a magnificent waterfall and further on, the Johns River, the vineyard, garden, and River Barn. Step inside and be immediately captivated by the Grandfather Mountain view, a living canvas right outside a wall of windows and glass that peak at the vaulted ceiling. A gorgeous stone fireplace anchors the open floor plan. The inviting back porch is your outdoor living room, with vaulted ceilings of tongue and groove wood and wood beams topped with a king post truss. The porch is floored with low maintenance composite decking. It is an ideal spot, any time of year, for soaking up the mountain air, watching sunsets and the change of seasons play out over the mountain ridgetops, and stargazing.
The dining area is by double windows, with that incredible mountain view. In the kitchen are tons of storage and workspace, custom cabinets, granite counters illuminated by under cabinet lighting, a travertine backsplash, and an island with seating. Appliances: dual GE® wall ovens and gas cooktop, KitchenAid® refrigerator, ultra quiet Bosch Silence Plus 44dB dishwasher, and a Sharp automatic drawer microwave that slides out for easy top-down access. The walk-in pantry has built in shelves, and outlets for charging your cordless gadgets. The tranquil primary bedroom enjoys the Grandfather Mountain view too! 2 large windows face the view and over the bed, a clerestory (wide but shallow) window over the bed pulls natural light into the space. The tailored spaces of the primary bath are your personal oasis for both waking up and winding down. Natural light fills the walk-in shower from a clerestory window at the top. The thick glass door keeps the shower space warmer and prevents water from splashing out. Dual vanities shine with granite counters. A linen closet adds essential storage. Behind a pocket door, the expansive walk-in closet was designed for effortless organization, with tailored cabinetry, drawers, and versatile hanging bars. Looking for 1-level living? It’s here! The main level features a laundry room w/sink and cabinet and easy garage access with no steps.
In the lower-level den, 2 sliding glass doors open directly to the concrete patio and manicured lawn. Your senses immerse in nature; smell honeysuckle in summer and fallen leaves in autumn. In the den: wet bar, cabinetry, and a spot for a fridge; ideal for entertaining, beer and a ball game, or binge watching your favorite new series. There are 2 guest bedrooms. The full bath is floored with ceramic plank tile that boasts a realistic wood finish, and the tub/shower combo has striking linear tile. Also on the LL is a flex room, with workbench and shelves, that can be a workshop, fitness room, or storage. Double doors exit to a concrete pad and the back lawn. There’s room for your UTV or other toys. The home's foundation is precast concrete, reinforced with steel, by Superior Walls®. A whole-house Generac® generator is included.
